Direct effects of glucagon on glucose uptake and lipolysis in human adipocytes

We aim to investigate the expression of the glucagon receptor (GCGR) in human adipose tissue, and the impact of glucagon in glucose uptake and lipolysis in human adipocytes. GCGR gene expression in human subcutaneous and visceral adipose tissue was demonstrated, albeit at low levels and with an inte...
